youtubing is a great way to find out if you knew them but didn't remember their name, still 2 points if you knew them that way, but only 1 point if you really didn't know them. Saying, oh I've heard this before doesn't count as knowing them, I'd say it takes 2 songs min. to say you even know a band, probably.
